Description
The Tin Pot Public House is a building that originated in the 15th or early 16th century. It features an exposed 16th-century timber frame in the rear wing, while the front block is encased in red brick from the mid to late 18th century. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has dentilled brick eaves. There are three windows; the two on the left have 19th-century wooden casements, and there is a 19th-century canted sash bay window on the ground floor. The rear wing consists of 2.5 bays, with the center bay likely being a former hall. The infill is made of brick and plaster, and there is a 17th-century red brick stack to the left of center. The right bay has the lower part of the first-floor wall exposed on the inside, which may indicate it was once a cross wing. The center and front bays contain 17th-century floor beams.
